BOB BURNS INVESTIGATES - THE MALLORCA CONNECTION
Book ID/图书代码: 00111006B07954
English Summary/英文概要: Bob Burns is an old-fashioned kind of Scottish sleuth, more interested in catching villains than brown-nosing to get promotion. So, when his enquiries into a brutal and bizarre murder are blocked by his bosses, should he risk losing his career by carrying on his investigations? Encouraged by an attractive-though-maverick forensic scientist and assisted by a keener-than-bright young constable, Bob does it his way. The trail leads the trio from Scotland to Mallorca, where intrigue and mayhem mingle with the crowds at a fishermen’s fiesta. A rare combination of suspense and comedy, with a real twist in the tail.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 彼得.科爾獨創路數,將冷酷嚴謹的蘇格蘭場警探,拉進西班牙馬約卡小島的時空背景。兩種不同文化對犯罪的定義,追緝方式的迥異,以及過程之中發生的衝突與笑料,無疑是對歐美文壇冷硬知識推理的嘲諷、改革與反叛。(TT)

About the Author/作者介绍: Peter Kerr was born in Lossiemouth, County Moray, but since his early childhood has lived (on and off) in East Lothian.
